Woody Lives!

From Cornell's Ornithology Lab:

"Long believed to be extinct, a magnificent bird--the Ivory-billed Woodpecker--has been rediscovered in the Big Woods of eastern Arkansas. More than 60 years after the last confirmed sighting of the species in the United States, a research team announced that at least one male ivory-bill still survives in vast areas of bottomland swamp forest."

You can see him here in a brief video.  Let's hope he's got some buddies.  Cheers to Campephilus principalis
